This article emphasizes the importance of women becoming more involved in finance, not only for their financial autonomy but also for the boost it gives to the economy. Despite legislative advances in France, such as the Copé-Zimmerman and Rixain laws, which have improved parity in governing bodies, women remain under-represented in key positions, particularly in market finance and venture capital.

The article calls for breaking down these barriers and underscores the positive impact of diversity on company performance and sustainability.
